The committee approved a request for qualifications to engage professional services for airport planning, architectural design, and construction oversight for projects scheduled from 2026 to 2031. This initiative aims to ensure that the airport can effectively manage upcoming improvements once current renovations are completed.
In addition, the committee moved forward with a request for qualifications to design a new airport master plan, which will guide future development and operational strategies for the airport.
A key financial decision was also made, as the committee authorized the airport to apply for a Federal Aviation Administration-sponsored grant worth $243,233. This funding will be used to replace airfield guidance signs, following a recent signage study. The local match required from Muskegon County will not exceed $6,081, making this a cost-effective investment in airport safety and functionality.
These decisions reflect a proactive approach to enhancing the airport's infrastructure, ensuring it meets the needs of the community and supports future growth. The committee's actions signal a commitment to improving transportation facilities in Muskegon County, paving the way for better service and accessibility for travelers.
